September 20

Sunday Morning, uneventful so far, getting ready for church. I desire to do more today than yesterday. Still haven't started the large collage I mentioned yesterday, but there is still time, I'm thinking that I want to try something with more muted colors and shapes.

Had a lot of fun with the dry brush sketches yesterday, but they are only an exercize to use as a primer, They tend to soot me fine because i'ts a slow building process that comes from a lot of small repeated brush strokes that slowly build up the composition. Sort of like drawing only with color. I start with a simple line drawing in pencil as a starting point to give a direction, We will see how far they will go as time passes.
